Jury Duty

This week I was selected for jury duty. This is my second time serving on a jury and it is very interesting. This was in federal court. I was an alternate at first, then 2 jurors were removed and I was moved onto the jury.

After the evidence was presented, which took 3 1/2 days, we went into deliberations. It was amazing to me the variation of opinions as to what was right and what was wrong. It struck me that so many people in our society today don't have a solid foundation in this area. They are taught their values by the schools, or the media, or public opinion. I am so grateful to have been taught solid values in my home, and to have the gospel of Jesus Christ in my life.
